Il San Corrado di Noto

Location: The hotel is located close to Noto in Sicily and offers a stunning, tranquil environment surrounded by beautiful landscapes.

What an excellent three days! Nestled in a picturesque country setting surrounded by olive trees, the hotel exudes refined Sicilian elegance with a modern twist. The staff were friendly, attentive, and professional. The rooms were large and elegant, reflecting the hotel's atmosphere. The pools a definite 10 out of 10. The quality and variety of the food were exceptional. The food is a celebration of Sicilian culinary traditions, full of flavour, and made with fresh local ingredients. The landscape around the property was postcard-perfect, with breathtaking panoramic views and amazing sunsets. Looking forward to returning soon!

This was our first trip to Sicily and we stayed at 5-Star hotels, in Palermo for three nights, Noto, three (at Il SanCorrado di Noto) and Taromima, four in that order. While we were advised that Taromima would be the standout, it paled in comparison to our stay in Noto. Rita and her team including reception, dining, housekeeping and Spa were exceptional. The hotel architecture is stunning with beautifully renovated rooms, and baths with his and her sinks and dressing areas. We are bankers who travel globally and agree, this place was really special and unlike anything we have ever experienced given the serenity, combined with fine dining and immaculate accommodations including tremendous attention to detail. You will feel like you have the place to yourself no matter where you are on the property, including the beach club, unlike our stays in Palermo and Taromima. We dined at the hotel restaurants including Casa Pasta and Principe di Belludia; both not to be missed. Try the table side tiramisu at the former and do the 7-course tasting menu with wine pairing at the latter. We enjoyed every second, including the creative and delicious gastronomic experience, along with servers who made the night truly magical. The Spa is equally wonderful; with a deep tissue massage that was amazing and half the price versus the other two hotels. Rita walks the grounds and made herself available with warm hospitality; another point of differentiation versus the other two hotels. She even went so far as to call the manager at our hotel in Taromima to inform him of our arrival. We almost changed our plans to return to home, just to return to Il SanCorrado for a few more days! A hearty and sincere thanks again to Rita and team!
